“Our Only Wish” this holiday season is to bring gay and lesbian marriage to the 34 states where it is still not legal, that’s the goal of GLAAD’s new campaign. The organization is hoping that by sending family photos, supporters can encourage all the governors of those 34 states to publicy support marriage equality. “It’s a lot harder to oppose something when you can see its face and you know its name,” said Cooper Smith Koch, a Texas man who shares two kids with his partner of 15 years, Todd. “That’s why we’re sending a holiday card to Governor Perry, so that he can see the faces of the citizens of Texas that are being harmed by inequality. And so that he can see the love that we have for our children and how it’s the same as the love he has for his.” Supporters can participate by clicking here and on Twitter using hashtag #OnlyWish.
